To use Saniclean, you have several options for application. One common method is to apply it on a surface using a cloth, mop, sponge, spray, or immersion. If you choose to use the spray application, it is recommended to use a coarse mist, pump, or trigger sprayer. Make sure to spray the Saniclean 6-8 inches away from the surface for optimal coverage.
After applying Saniclean, it is important to allow for a sufficient contact time of at least 2-3 minutes. This gives the sanitizer enough time to effectively kill bacteria and sanitize the surface. During this contact time, the Saniclean solution works to break down and eliminate any organic residue present on the surface.
Once the contact time has elapsed, it is crucial to drain the surface, but do not rinse it. Rinsing can potentially reintroduce bacteria or contaminants to the surface. Instead, allow the Saniclean solution to air dry or wipe it off with a clean cloth or sponge.
In my personal experience as a brewer, I have found Saniclean to be a reliable and effective sanitizer. I often use it to sanitize brewing equipment such as fermenters, kegs, and tubing. The spray application method works well for smaller items, while immersion is more suitable for larger equipment. By following the recommended contact time and avoiding rinsing, I have been able to maintain a clean and sanitary brewing environment.
Using Saniclean regularly not only helps to prevent contamination and off-flavors in beer but also ensures the safety of the final product. It is important to follow the manufacturer's instructions and guidelines for proper usage and dilution rates to achieve optimal results.
When using Saniclean, you have various application methods to choose from, including cloth, mop, sponge, spray, or immersion. If using the spray method, make sure to use a coarse mist and follow up with a brush or sponge. Allow for a contact time of at least 2-3 minutes, drain the surface without rinsing, and let it air dry or wipe it off. Following these steps will help you effectively sanitize surfaces and maintain a clean and safe environment.
